Anyone know where to find the paint codes on the 03 Elantra. I looked on the door jam, firewall, in the trunk, on the hood - could not find anything that says paint code. Anybody know what the the Hyundai codes are supposed to look like? The factory colour name was bordeaux red ...

I now see how you spell "colour", which I assume you are Canadian or British or some part of the Commonwealth. Hmmm, the above are US color codes for 2003, so they may not apply. I think Hyundai does consistently use the two letter code scheme, so look for a tag that has two capital letters on it.

Thanks, I will keep looking - I suspect that some of the colour naming schemes in Canada were different in 03 than those available in the US, so I will keep looking. At least now I know what to look for.

I googled "Hyundai Bordeaux Red" and came up with several references to the code "RB". One hit was for the 2003 Elantra for a prepainted aftermarket spoiler.
